Six Acres

Craft Beer, Cozy Vibes, and Pre-Show Energy

Set in the historic heart of Vancouver's Gastown district, Six Acres is a cozy, brick-lined gastropub known for its relaxed atmosphere, hearty pub fare, and excellent craft beer selection. Just a short walk from some of the city's top music venues, this spot draws concert-goers looking for a casual bite and a local brew before the show. Housed in one of the city's oldest buildings, it balances rustic charm with a buzzing, friendly energy that feels perfect for a night out.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything—and Six Acres delivers. It's just minutes from key concert spots, making it an ideal pre-show stop. The service is quick and attentive, so you won’t be late for your set. The menu offers shareable plates, comfort-heavy mains, and vegetarian options, all perfect for fueling up before a long night. The noise level stays lively but not overwhelming, and if you’re lucky, you can snag a seat on their small patio for some people-watching with your pint.

What People Say

According to reviews on TripAdvisor and OpenTable, guests love the rotating local beer list, tasty comfort food like mac & cheese and pulled pork sliders, and the warm, historic charm of the space. Many mention how it’s a go-to spot for grabbing a bite before concerts or shows, and praise the friendly staff and quick service even when it’s busy.

Areas for Improvement

Seating can be tight, especially during peak hours, and the space fills up fast before concerts—so arriving early is smart. The menu isn’t extensive, but what they do serve, they do well. And while there’s no strict dress code, the casual vibe leans more jeans-and-flannel than upscale dining.

The Bottom Line

If you’re headed to a show nearby and want great beer, comfort food, and a cozy vibe, Six Acres is a solid pick for a relaxed and satisfying pre-concert stop.
